What it does
Write Locale Translations is an agent skill from videojs/video.js. Translate or audit the values in a Video.js locale pack. Use when a key needs values, en.ts copy changes underneath a pack, or one pack needs an audit.
Its SKILL.md is about 720 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/evidence-sources.md` and `references/language-pitfalls.md`).
It sits in Writing & Content, covering Translation and Internationalization. The repository describes itself as: Video.js v10 - open source media player framework for HTML and React.
When your agent uses it
- A key needs values
- En.ts copy changes underneath a pack
- One pack needs an audit
Example prompts
- “/write-locale-translations”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify which values are stale by diffing the pack against current en.ts key by key; a value whose English source has not changed stays…
- Research each value against localized first-party UI for the same control, with one citation per value. Read…
- Check the wording against references/language-pitfalls.md, then edit values only, preserving the key set, key order, and the full…
- Verify by re-deriving each value from en.ts and its old value, re-fetching every citation, and running a codepoint scan for homoglyphs…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 05f40e8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pnpmgit
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pnpm and git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Write Locale Translations loads about 723 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 328 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 328 words (~723 tokens).
“Produce translated values for one locale pack in packages/core/src/core/i18n/locales/ that are backed by a citable source and free of the known pitfalls. Every value reaches the DOM as an aria-label, so a wrong word class is announced by a screen…”
